I have this:
CPU: Intel Pentium 4 511
Mobo: Intel D101GGC
RAM: DDR400 1.5 GB (1x1 and 1x 512MB)
HDD: 80 GB
Well, I just went to my BIOS and increased the system memory speed from 400MHz to 533MHz. On the first page of the BIOS (The general tab) - before overclocking - it said:
System bus speed = 533 MHz
System memory speed = 400MHz
After I overclocked, it said
System bus speed = 533 MHz
System memory speed = 800MHz.
Q1. I want to understand how that happened. And the one which I increased, did that increase my processor's clock speed also?
Q2. CPU-z showed :
Rated FSB = 400MHz.
now it shows,
Rated FSB = 533 MHz.
So, I guess all went right. Right?
Q3. In memory tab in CPU-z, it first showed DRAM frequency = 200MHz. Now it shows DRAM frequency = 233.4 MHz. I think that is because, for DDR the speed shown is actually half the real speed. So, what actually is DRAM frequency?
Q4. I still can increase the memory speed from 533 MHz to 667 MHz in my BIOS. So, should I do it? Right now, it is giving better performance than before. AND MY WINDOWS EXPERIENCE INDEX HAS INCREASED.
CPU: 2.7 to 2.9
RAM: 4.2 to 4.3
Graphics: 2.0 to 2.2
Gaming Graphics: 3.1 (no change)
Primary Hard Disk: 5.3 (no change)
HOW DID THE CPU SCORE CHANGE? I CAN UNDERSTAND ABOUT THE GRAPHICS BECAUSE I HAVE AN INTEGRATED GRAPHICS WHICH TAKES SOME RAM TOO, BUT HOW CPU? SO DOES THAT MEAN MY CPU PERFORMANCE INCREASES TOO? (CPU-z still shows 2.8 GHz cpu speed - that's the stock speed)
